Chapter 294 The French Woman
"What are you doing here, ma'am?" Qin Chuan put away his gun.
The French woman couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, looked at Qin Chuan, and asked without answering, "Is there any cigarette, Lieutenant?"
Qin Chuan touched his pocket, took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it on it.
The French woman took the cigarette, looked at it, and said unexpectedly: "Did you come from the battlefield?"
"Yes!" Qin Chuan couldn't help but be stunned: "How did you know?"
The French woman raised the cigarette in her hand, shrugged her shoulders, and said, "They smoke French cigarettes, and you smoke Egyptian cigarettes!"
The French woman was right. Due to the supply issues in the Alexander line of defense, a considerable number of soldiers received "pyramid" cigarettes produced by Egypt.
"You are very observant, ma'am!" Qin Chuan said.
"No!" the French woman shook her head and replied, "I will know this because my father is a tobacco dealer!"
"Oh!" Qin Chuan turned around and looked at the dance hall while lighting a cigarette for the French woman, saying, "So..."
"Yes!" the French woman replied: "You guessed right. My father brought me here. He hoped to know more German officers... In other words, I am a card in his hand, or a toy in your Germans' hands!"
Qin Chuan couldn't help but feel surprised: "Ms...."
"So, why are you here?" The French woman looked at Qin Chuan in confusion.
"You know!" Qin Chuan replied: "I got off the battlefield, so..."
"So you don't know how to date a woman?" The French woman couldn't help but laugh.
Qin Chuan found that she smiled beautifully, with a curvaceous curve on the corner of her mouth, and the cigarettes she held in her hand had a noble and wild temperament.
At this time, a few figures came out of the lights of the dance hall. The French woman hurriedly threw the cigarettes into the ground and said, "Sorry, I'm leaving..."
"Can I help you, ma'am?" Qin Chuan asked.
The French woman looked at Qin Chuan and unconsciously held Qin Chuan's hand when passing by Qin Chuan, shook her head gently with regret: "I really hope you can help me, but you can't, Lieutenant!"
It is obvious that she can identify the ranks from her uniform, which may have been taught by her father.
The French woman tidied up her hat, wiped her eyes quickly, and tried to make herself happy. Then she walked to the dance hall, leaving only a few special perfume smells beside Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan turned around and planned to continue to enjoy his quietness along the path, but suddenly, he found that he could no longer calm down.
At this time, Qin Chuan saw a handkerchief on the chair next to the trail, and there was also a faint perfume smell near the handkerchief.
"Lieutenant!" At this time, Qin Chuan heard Colonel Slein's cry.
"I'm here!" Qin Chuan replied, after walking a few steps, he hurriedly turned around and picked up the handkerchief.
"Where have you been?" asked Colonel Slain, "General Oxter is here!"
"Oh!" Qin Chuan replied: "I'll just go there!"
Under the lights of the dance hall, Qin Chuan recognized the French woman without much effort. She was dancing on the dance floor with a very sunny smile on her face, and she would have said something to the colonel's dance partner from time to time. If it weren't for knowing that she was crying secretly in the park just now, Qin Chuan would have believed that her smile was real.
The French woman obviously saw Qin Chuan, and the smile on her face became a little unnatural.
At the end of the song, when the French woman passed by Qin Chuan, Qin Chuan took out his handkerchief and said, "Madam, this is your handkerchief!"
"Oh, yes!" The French woman's eyes were a little flustered. She took the handkerchief and whispered: "Thank you!"
"You don't need to force yourself!" Qin Chuan said: "Can I ask you to dance?"
The French woman was stunned, and then she secretly gave Qin Chuan a wink, as if saying: "Are you crazy? Didn't you see the colonel next to you?"
"What did you say, Lieutenant?" The colonel looked at Qin Chuan with an incredible expression.
"Didn't you see it?" Qin Chuan asked back without answering: "She doesn't like you!"
The German colonel was stunned and then laughed. When he stopped his smile, he said to Qin Chuan in a threatening tone: "Get out of here, or I will let someone throw you out!"
"Oh, is that?" Qin Chuan looked at the colonel without giving in and asked, "Are you sure?"
At this moment, a few crisp sounds of cups rang out, and Major General Oxter stood on the stage and shouted loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, let us welcome Colonel Slein and Lieutenant Frick from the First Infantry Regiment!"
Colonel Slain brought a glass of wine to Qin Chuan, and the two raised their glasses to pay tribute to the audience.
Major General Oxter introduced: "Col. Slain led the First Infantry Regiment from the sky to the empire and seized Algiers. Let us cheer for his victory and the valor of the First Infantry Regiment...!"
The officers cheered loudly and raised their glasses to Colonel Slain.
"Lt. Flick!" Major General Oxter made a pause intentionally when he said this, and then continued: "You may be more familiar with his other name...'Legendary'!"
With a "coaxing", the audience's eyes turned to Qin Chuan, including the French woman and the colonel.
"Yes!" Major General Oxter continued: "He is the 'Legend Sergeant' who repeatedly defeated the British, he is the anti-aircraft gun that made the enemy armored division frightened, he is the Lieutenant Frick who seized the entire Toulon fleet! Let us pay our highest respect for his achievements and legend!"
With a "wow", the dance hall suddenly heard a shocking applause, and officers came forward from time to time to shake hands with Qin Chuan:
"Awesome achievement, Lieutenant!"
"You are my idol, Lieutenant!"
...
Qin Chuan held the wine glass and raised it to the colonel, saying, "College, where did we just talk about?"
The colonel couldn't help but feel embarrassed. After thinking about it, he replied: "Sorry, Lieutenant, I don't know it's you!"
As he said that, he glanced at the French woman and walked away in disappointment.
Qin Chuan shrugged at the French woman and said, "Sorry, I scared your dance partner away!"
The French woman laughed: "So, are you the 'Legendary'?"
"That's what they call me!"
"You seized a whole fleet?"
"No!" Qin Chuan replied: "I have never even been to Port Toulon!"
"Don't worry!" As the French woman invited Qin Chuan to walk to the dance floor...
"What are you doing?" Qin Chuan asked.
"Of course it's dancing!" the French woman replied.
"But I can't dance!"
The French woman stared at Qin Chuan with her eyes widened and said, "But you invited me just now!"
